Hubert had been brought to Europe for a time where he met Besant, and she saw him again in Chicago in 1909 while she was there to give a public lecture, where "...she was so struck by him that she prevailed on his mother to leave her husband and bring the boy to Europe and India for special training for his marvellous destiny."(Lutyens, "Awakening", Discus p 12)

Leadbetter at about this same time discovered Krishnamurti.  This "discovery" created a bit of a problem over the conflicting claims. Hubert's mother did leave  her husband, bringing Hubert to India. After Krishna was found, Hubert was soon dropped."(Lutyens, "Awakening", Discus p 12)

Hubert was later to accuse Leadbeater of inappropriate actions. On the denunciation, Mary Lutyens states: "Hubert later swore to Mrs Besant that Leadbeater had 'misused' him, but as he was extremely vindictive by that time, his testimony, though unshaken, was perhaps not altogether reliable.' (Lutyens, "Awakening", Discus p 45n)
